MY AWESOME BOYFRIEND IS DRIVING US TO SUBANG JAYA TOMORROW!!!!!

hello, white castles! hello, asia cafe! hello, sunway pyramid! hello, memories!

i am SO homesick.
i'm coming to love this new place for what it is, though

1. Timothy being a five minute drive away.
2. Playing with the kitten and curling up on the couch at his place.
3. The Lady Who Sells Cool Malay Kuih near the Wangsa Maju station.
4. Fruits being so outrageously cheap at the pasar malam near my place.
5. And KLCC is always somewhere visible in the neighbourhood.

It's all very nice.

But i miss the salt on your skin from after a day at the beach.


on another note my mom bought me two more of those cool vintage tees i love so much! you know, the ones with the Mr Men and Little Miss? Little Miss Sunshine and Little Miss Giggles. Aku sangat gembira.

Timothy and I were at the pasar malam a few days ago when we passed these people selling goat's milk and they had this pregnant goat tethered nearby, to increase the authenticity believe. She had floppy brown ears and huge dark eyes. And now i'm considering vegetarianism again. Arrrrgh. It was those eyes, damnit.

butterfly

I don't know if you remember what you were like, butterfly, but i sure as hell do.
You had the brightest hues on your wings. You could never settle on just one flower, you wanted every single one, flitting impatiently from one beautiful thing to another.
I remember energy in your wings, beating furiously, a colourful blur. A powerful force under the delicate form.
And then the colour seemed to seep from you. The slow swish of your tired, paperthin wings scared me.
And butterfly, you turned the saddest shade of grey.

This is for someone too dear for me to just do nothing about, and yet there's really nothing I can do. I still see you.
Don't fade anymore, I barely see you. If you get any less visible I'm so scared I won't find you again.
